Preach on Kid, preach on!
The Kid Rock campaign for a Senate seat in Michigan just kicked off this week, but it already has big momentum. And I like it a lot.
Kid Rock may be a famous rocker with a rough image, but he seems to me like a real American. And he just said it: “hardworking AMERICANS have had enough of politicians and we are sick and tired of their bulls***!”
It’s why we elected Donald Trump to the Presidency and it very well may be why Kid Rock ends up in the Senate. I like it. I think he’d be a good ally of Donald Trump.
Oh, and just like Trump, he’s running as a republican! 😊
I have had a ton of emails and texts asking me if this website is real… https://t.co/RRVgISDFeq The answer is an absolute YES. pic.twitter.com/uYCUg6mjW1

Here are more details just released from Hannity.com:
Loud-mouthed musician Kid Rock dropped the hammer on his potential democratic opponent in next year’s senate race, telling the liberal lawmaker “hardworking AMERICANS” have had enough of politicians and were “sick and tired of their bulls***!”
Michigan-native Kid Rock, born Bob Ritchie, announced his bid for the US Senate on Wednesday, launching a “Kid Rock for Senate” website and online store. The rap and country music star confirmed his political ambitions on social media, saying the “website is real.”
On Thursday, Rock launched his first major attack on his potential democratic opponent, incumbent Sen. Debbie Stabenow.
According to Detroit News, the senator slammed Rock’s entry in to the race, saying he was better “at guitar,” but wasn’t a serious politician. The rapper fired back, saying he would be the voice for “tax paying, hardworking Americans.”
“I concede she is better at playing politics than I am so I’ll keep doing what I do best, which is being a voice for tax paying, hardworking AMERICANS and letting politicians like her know that We the People are sick and tired of their bulls***!” said Kid Rock.
Criticism of Rock’s senate bid echo similar comments made about President Trump, with many calling his entry in to the republican primary a “publicity stunt.”
“President Trump was thought to be more of a publicity stunt prior to him pulling the trigger on the 2016 presidential race. So I think it’s possible that with the election of Trump we see more of this,” said a Political Science professor from Oakland University.
